Read about the beard. When Carter started to try to unravel the wrappings, they had a terrible time because of the hardened state of the resin. That's why his remains look so bad. There's even a theory that the oils in the resin they covered his mummy with caught fire:

I think we are referring to 2 different resins.
I am referring to the botched repair years ago where museum staff glued the broken off beard back with modern epoxy resin.
I would thing the original natural resins used at the time of the burial (if that is what was used) had all but turned to amber, and been impossible to remove without massive damage.

I was happy to watch the episode where Kirk fought the Gorn lizard guy with my 10 year old the other day. He has been getting into the show and Kirk is generally a manly guy so I like him to actually witness men acting like men on TV!
However, At the end I forgot that there was this athenian alien guy who was this massive pacifist.
It pissed me off because the gorn murdered an entire colony of men women and children without giving them warning to leave and at the end of the episode, Kirk smiled and said “don’t kill the Gorn, we’ll talk and work things out.”
It was like how we are handling ISIS today.

The chair and the shirt inspired zilch. The phaser, the tricorder, the medical scanner, the replicator and probably a few things that I’ve forgotten for the moment, those inspired and many are real today.
The replicator was the one item I didn’t think I’d ever see in any form in my lifetime.

I liked it when it first came on and I still watch every Saturday night on METV.
One thing I have noticed is that last season had some weak episodes. Still some good ones but it probably was about time to end it.

The motion activated doors, and badge tracking/locating are both real today. And transparent aluminum is supposedly in the works.

Hubby and I watched an episode together and were in awe of all the technology from the original Star Trek that is in use today. Yes, I don't know how I could get to work without my matter transmitter. . . "Beam me to work, honey!"

There are a few things which look silly today. They think people 200 years in the future will still be using tape recordings.
Probably the most impossible thing which we sort of accepted without much thought was the transporter. If they could do that, they could do about anything.
